Neighbour having constant parties

[ReginaaPhalange]

Neighbour who lives behind me has a pub/cabin in their garden. Today there is at least 9 people from different households in there watching football and drinking.

They do this all the time - every weekend and it is beginning me frustrate me.

Would you ignore it or call 101?

I'm in an area with stricter measures in place. I can hear them from my front room all drunkenly singing... my neighbour next door to me has a young baby and has had trouble getting her to sleep the last few weekends the other neighbour has been partying. They are scared to report as they don't want it being obvious it's them and that's why I'm a bit hesitant...

Depends where you are. I'm in Scotland and it's way over the allowed max of 2 households, so I'd report.

If you are in England they aren't that far over the allowed 6

@Unicorners I'm in Scotland

[quote ReginaaPhalange]@Yamaya it's every weekend. They have never complied with the rules from day 1[/quote]
If they've ignored the rules from the start why haven't you phoned the police? That's 7 months you've turned a blind eye to people breaking the law.

@annabel85 I work most weekends so not here to witness it directly myself. Why should it be my responsibility to report it? There are plenty of other neighbours.

I don't want it being traced back to me as they are not nice people and I don't want to cause problems every day with them

Why should it be my responsibility to report it? There are plenty of other neighbours.

It's not just your duty, it's the duty of all your neeighbours, too.

You can look the other way now and again, but when it's regular and blatant you have a responsibility to your community to report it.

I would report, no different to breaking any other law. We won’t get case numbers down if people don’t comply.

Oh mind your own business op 🙄

Will they find out it's me who's reported it?

Why would it be obvious it was you? What they're doing is crap. Try to make a recording or at least pictures and report it.

@ReginaaPhalange

Will they find out it's me who's reported it?

Make an anonymous phone call to the police

Nobody seems to be complying! My daughter is isolating due to a positive case in her year! She is 13 and takes it very seriously. DP is extremely vulnerable, she is hand washing and keeping her distance from him. We haven't told her to.
Yet outside right now are students in her year bubble who have been told to isolate, playing out with numerous other children.

I would report your neighbours, but I am hormonal and not in the greatest moods!

If you have plenty neighbours surrounding it could easily be any of them but also if there's rowdiness that can be heard from the street could easily be anyone walking past. You can report anonymously by phone to 101 or our local police have a Facebook page that's manned for non emergencies you can report on too.

I would report it

Reported it

Well done OP people like your neighbours make a mockery of people who are trying to stick to the rules.

@ApolloandDaphne I do feel guilty and like should be minding my own business, but it's been going on for long enough

@AwaAnBileYerHeid

"worry about your own shit!".

As a pp has said, it's everyone's shit. People not complying with the rules is why this virus is spreading to people who are "worrying about their own shit" and acting responsibly. It's why things like christmas may be impacted. It really isn't a you do you type of situation. I am perplexed as to how people cannot wrap their heads around this. Is it a lack of understanding about something that has already been laid out in the simplest of terms? Or is it more of an 'I don't give a shit about anyone but me'type of thing?

You can’t fix stupid. I’m afraid it’s as simple as that. If we’d all kept to a decent level of vigilance we wouldn’t be back here facing more lockdowns.

Well done OP.

Let's face it, these neighbours aren't bending the rules because of urgent mental health needs or whatever, they are just selfishly taking the piss. They are making it much harder for those with real mental and physical problems to access the social contact and help they need, and they don't give a shit. It doesn't surprise me you say they aren't nice people. I am sorry you have to live near them. Sounds like a reign of terror with everyone frightened to complain about noise etc.

Hi Jan 👋🏻

@yawnsvillex yeah, they don't work 🙄 It's just basic common sense really...masks, hand hygiene, social distancing. As I say, completely perplexed at how gormless and selfish some people are...

@HillaryWhitney

Hi Jan 👋🏻

What’s the point of this?

@HillaryWhitney ?

Have the police turned up, OP?

Report it. So selfish.
